This is my second experience with a guest ranch and wish I would have returned to where I went last year.

Positives: View from ranch is beautiful, people are wonderful, the food is awesome, spa was very nice with a great yoga instructor and price was reasonable. I must stress, the people are great.....however, those items are not enough for me to return.

Negatives: Beds were horrible, lighting in cabin was very poor, didn't care for the shower head, no TV, no internet (except in a very small location by main building) and no locks on the cabin doors! The horses were lovely but the rides were pretty boring and ALL nose to tail riding with no variation as to destinations and limited to 2 hours at a time. I really enjoy having the option of open field rides where people can spread out and ride side by side if they prefer which is not available here.

We aren't drinkers so after dinner we returned to our cabin and since there was no TV or internet we had to TRY and go to sleep at a ridiculously early time because there isn't any other form of entertainment.

I feel bad about only giving 2 stars but I cannot give a higher rating just because people are nice and food is good. Granted, this was a last minute trip during COVID and they normally have other activities to offer under non-COVID circumstances, but my sole reason for going is to enjoy horse rides and I need more comfortable accommodations at my age when I travel. I like the appearance of rustic cabins, but I need comfort too, especially when it comes to sleeping. I am just glad we weren't there for an entire week and during the heat of the summer because no AC would have added to an already uncomfortable trip.
